2Pe1:1 Simon Peter, servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have taken with us the even-faith [to them that have taken with us the even much faith], in the rightwiseness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ,
2Pe1:2 grace and peace be filled to you, by the knowing of our Lord Jesus Christ. [grace to you, and peace be full-filled, in the knowing of our Lord Jesus Christ.]
2Pe1:3 How all things of his god-like virtue, that be to life and piety [that be into life and piety], be given to us, by the knowing of him, that called us for his own glory and virtue.
2Pe1:4 By whom he gave to us most [and] precious promises; that by these things ye shall be made fellows of God's kind, and flee the corruption of that covetousness [fleeing the corruption of that covetousness], that is in the world.
2Pe1:5 And bring ye in all busyness, and minister in your faith virtue, and in virtue knowing [soothly in virtue science, or knowing ];
2Pe1:6 in knowing abstinence [in science soothly abstinence], in abstinence patience, in patience piety;
2Pe1:7 in piety, love of brotherhood, and in love of brotherhood charity.
2Pe1:8 For if these be with you, and overcome [and overcome, or be plenteous ], they shall not make you void, neither without fruit [nor without fruit], in the knowing of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2Pe1:9 But to whom these be not ready, he is blind, and gropeth with his hand, and forgetteth the purging of his old trespasses.
2Pe1:10 Wherefore, brethren, be ye more busy [more busy ye], that by good works ye make your calling and choosing certain; for ye doing these things shall not do sin any time [soothly ye doing these things, shall not sin any time].
2Pe1:11 For thus the entering into [the] everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, shall be ministered to you plenteously.
2Pe1:12 For which thing I shall begin to admonish you evermore of these things; and I will that ye be knowing, and confirmed in this present truth.
2Pe1:13 Forsooth I deem justly [Forsooth I deem just], as long as I am in this tabernacle, to raise you in admonishing;
2Pe1:14 and I am certain, that the putting away [for the putting off] of my tabernacle is swift, by this that our Lord Jesus Christ hath showed to me.
2Pe1:15 But I shall give busyness, that oft after my death ye have mind of these things.
2Pe1:16 For we not following unwise tales, have made known to you the virtue and the before-knowing [the virtue and prescience, or before-knowing ,] of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were made beholders of his greatness [but made beholders of his greatness].
2Pe1:17 For he took of God the Father honour and glory, by such manner voice slid down to him from the great glory, This is my loved Son, in whom I have pleased to me; hear ye him.
2Pe1:18 And we heard this voice brought from heaven, when we were with him in the holy hill.
2Pe1:19 And we have a firmer word of prophecy, to which ye giving attention do well, as to a lantern that giveth light in a dark place, till the day begin to give light, and the day star spring in your hearts.
2Pe1:20 And first understand ye this thing, that each prophecy of scripture is not made by proper interpretation; [First understanding this thing, that each prophecy of scripture is not made by proper, or own , interpretation;]
2Pe1:21 for prophecy was not brought any time by man's will, but the holy men of God inspired with the Holy Ghost spake.
